Wellbutrin and Lexapro work on different brain chemistries. Wellbutrin works on the dopamine while Lexapro works on Seratonin. Ten mg of Lexapro is a small dose. Wellbutrin can be taken twice a day to prolong its efficacy in conjunction with the Lexapro taken once. This is a standad therapy.

Can you take Paxil with inositol?
I currently take 20 mg of Lexapro and 150 mg of Wellbutrin daily along with 650 mg of Inositol twice daily. While one can use Inositol alone to modulate seratonin similar to that of SSRIs it usually requires doses of 10 - 12 mg or even higher to do so. I'm a bigger guy and I wouldn't recommend really exceeding the inositol dose I take in conjunction with Lexapro or a similar SSRI due to the risk of Seratonin Syndrome (also called Sertagonic Syndrome.) It can boost the effectiveness of the SSRI as I feel it does with me. However, the Lexapro and Wellbutrin combination really works great for some as it does for me.
My ex girlfriend has changed and is a different person I caught her in bed with another guy and she laughed at me this is not who she is she is taking lexapro and wellbutrin somebody please help me?
Well, if you still love your ex-girlfriend and wants to help her, the unique possible solution is to convince her to quit those medicines. Ask for help from another person of her family, that's all I can pass to you. Such medicines surely will lead to alterations on the user's personality. Patience, love, caress are the proper medicines in such cases.

Both of them have same antibacterial spetrum and there is no logic behind using the combination. Please use either of them at a time and if you do not get response then start the other one.

It took me about 3 weeks to stop feeling disoriented after I stopped lexapro
Is it unusual to be prescribed Strattera Concerta and Wellbutrin for ADHD?
AnswerFrom a medical standpoint it is not uncommon for a combination of medications to use used to treat ADHD. A combination of Concerta (methylphenidate), Strattera (atomoxetine), and Wellbutrin (bupropion) is somewhat odd but not extreme. Both Concerta and Strattera are approved to treat ADHD, Wellbutrin is not although there is some evidence it can be helpful in people with ADHD, particularly those who fail to adequately respond to stimulants.It is perfectly appropriate and fairly common for two medications to be used at one time, typically a stimulant like Concerta and either Strattera or Wellbutrin. It is not unheard of for two stimulants like Concerta and Adderall to be used together or for Strattera and Wellbutrin to be used together. Often adding either Strattera or Wellbutrin in a conventional stimulant like Concerta can provide better symptom control.Concerta and Strattera have no significant drug interactions however both have some interaction with Wellbutrin, which may increase plasma concentrations of Strattera and there is a slight increase is seizure risk when combining Concerta with Wellbutrin. However the risk is very minor and people with no history of epilepsy are unlikely to have a problem. Risk of seizure when taking Wellbutrin is typically about 0.4%.Simply put there is no medical reason all three medications can't be used at the same time although it is, as it always is, important to monitor for side effects. But using three medications is uncommon however doctors are able to prescribe unusual combinations of medication because some people require a more novel treatment.As always if you have any concerns or side effects please tell your doctor. Do not increase, decrease, or stop medication without talking with your doctor.Anecdotal answerNo. But if you really have a concern you should consult with the prescribing doctor. You could be on one of the medications until the others kick in. Or you could simply be taking a low dose of all 3. From the Wellbutrin (and not being a prescribing doctor) it's hard to tell what the direction is here... you could have been given the Wellbutrin to offset side effects, or to work with one or both of the other medications. Wellbutrin does have stimulant properties, more so than Strattera, however neither drug has stimulant effects like Concerta. If you are not feeling comfortable with these medications be sure to talk with your doctor. Only he can explain his reasoning or he may change the prescription altogether. As far as being a weird combination... no it's not.
What are the side effects of taking two lexapro at the same time?
You should never take 2 lexapro at the same time. I did once because, well never mind, and its just not good for you. One is supposed to make your emotions stable but taking more than one is a huge body hazard. Please don't do it even just as some type of experiment. Drugs are not a joke. Thank you.
